Another workaround is to make the size of the checkbox control only as large as 
the box itself so there's no grey background visible & use a separate text 
control which can be set to have a transparent background. Breaks screen reader 
compatibility though if you're willing to live with that.

Poo. :(

OK, I guess the other way to look at it is then; why is the final page
background white (rather than grey)?

I notice that all other pages (End-User License Agreement, Destination
Folder, Ready to install, Progress) have grey backgrounds, and the check box
on the End-User License page looks fine.
